He is the youngest pitcher (at age 22) to have won the AL Cy Young Award award - Dwight Gooden won the award at age 20 in the National League. Blue had already pitched a no-hitter by then, achieving the feat on September 21, 1970 against the Minnesota Twins. On September 28, 1975, he would combine with three other pitchers to hurl a second no-hitter against the California Angels. After his great 1971 season, when he went 24-8, 1.82, with 301 strikeouts and 8 shutouts, Blue held out for more money at the start of 1972, threatening to retire and work for a plumbing supply company of which he was vice-president. In the end, he returned to the team but only went 6-10, 2.80 in 25 starts. Still, he was at his best in the postseason, pitching in relief in four of the five games against the Detroit Tigers in the 1972 ALCS, including four scoreless innings in relief of John Odom to pick up the save in the decisive Game 5. In the 1972 World Series, he picked another save in Game 1 against the Cincinnati Reds, then after two more relief appearances, started Game 6, but lost, 8-1.
